Watch this shocking video of a tugboat which capsizes along with a man inside while pulling a barge at Skookumchuck Narrows . The man is trapped inside the capsized tug before he is rescued by a Kayaker.

Kayaker Dave Fusilli of Team Demshitz paddles out his Pyranha kayak in an attempt to save the man from the wreckage. Luckily no one was killed and a nearby tug pulled the barge and submerged tug to safety before the tide went out and the rapids of Skookumchuck became dangerous.

    The maneuver was very hard. the tug-master should be aware of the tactical diameter of the tug.

    Too fast on a too short towing cable, this will never work
